Jimmy Carr: Funny Business

Maybe Carr is funny when you are in a bar and your date is one hour late. But on NetFlix he is another bore in a long list. This one is a bore with a British accent.

Properly laugh out loud funny, Jimmy's quick wit ruthlessly ruins members of the audience.

Two basic characteristics of Jimmy Carr are totally moronic laughter, which is impossible to get used to, and pushing the boundaries of offensive to infinity. This man not only picks topics that most people would not touch with a two-meter stick, but also manages to turn the things that you never thought could be offensive into total shockers. Just when you think that this does not get any worse he proves you wrong. Jimmy Carr always can make it worse. Most of the performance I couldn't manage to laugh because my jaw was hanging open in disbelief. I do not know how this man is not afraid for his very life. His picture should be in the dictionaries next to the word "offensive", because this man manages to push the limits of offensiveness to absolutely any topic that could come to your mind.

9/10

A show from Jimmy Carr is always good or at least I never saw a bad one. Funny Business is the typical Jimmy Carr show like we're used to from him, one-line jokes, politically non-correct, interacting with the audience. It's small inappropriate jokes, no time to rest, joke after joke. His intercating with the audience shows again that he's not afraid of confrontation, he even encourages it, and when you have a wannabe smartass (in this show a guy called Rack or some stupid name like that) that tries to ridicule him he'll just demolishes you with his funny comebacks. The guy Rack made a fool out of himself so his lesson should be that he'd better shut up the next time he tries to be the hero. Jimmy Carr, you either love him or you hate him, count me in the first category.

This is excruciating. I couldn't manage it all the way through. It seems to have been cobbled together from jokes that have been doing the rounds for years. It's lazy comedy. If you have been living in a bunker underground for the past few decades it might be amusing, but then again, so might a urethroscopy.
